DIY Elastic Hair Ties

Elastic hair ties are such a popular hair accessory right now. They’re great because you can pull your hair back without leaving a huge dent, plus they’re really cute and you can wear them on your wrist. These little pieces of elastic can run you $5-$10 EACH depending on the brand and the color/decorations. You can make them yourself for a buck each or less!

What You’ll Need:

• 5/8″ foldover elastic (1 yard will make four hair ties)
• Scissors
• Measuring tape or ruler

Directions:

1. Measure and cut a 9″ strip of elastic.
2. Fold the strip of elastic in half.
3. Tie the ends in a knot.
4. Repeat.
